Annapolis Church of Christ - Sponsor Program

Memory Verse: Job 38:36-38 [NKJV]  "Who has put wisdom in the innermost being Or given understanding to the mind? Who can count the clouds by wisdom, Or tip the water jars of the heavens, When the dust hardens into a mass And the clods stick together?"

We maintain a sponsor program which matches midshipmen with families in our congregation.  This program, in conjunction with the official USNA sponsor program, has been very successful in assisting the incoming midshipmen.  Our sponsor families routinely provide midshipmen with a sanctuary and home cooked meals in a family environment away from Bancroft Hall.  Our sponsors may also provide transportation to the airport during holiday breaks as well as host visiting family members from time to time. The parents of midshipmen, and former-midshipmen have been very grateful over the years for the time, effort and energy bestowed upon them during their stay here in Annapolis.  We are blessed that God has given us the opportunity to be of service to the brotherhood.
